Stems 2017
MUSEUM RELEASE
"If anything is going to redefine Rutherglen Durif, it's this wine" (Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front)
With only two barrels produced, this was Winemaker Rowly's first foray into Durif fermented on 70% of the stems. Striking, savoury, intense, structured.
A bright ruby hue, with a heady nose of plums poached in star anise, savoury herbs, nutmeg and a whiff of white pepper. A bright palate of sour cherry, tart cranberry and dark plums finishing with fine, lingering tannin.
Wild yeast fermentation, with maturation in Foudre (no new oak). Unfiltered.
Drink now; we’ve done the careful cellaring for you.
